A: I'm having the strangest feeling of Deja Vu

It all started so innocently, with celebrating the lack of impending doom by loading up on sweets. Even if she knew they were doing something to people's abilities, it's not like she had had any indication that she even had an ability, so how bad could it be, right?

Shortly after the snack, it began with a sudden spell of fatigue. Kosuzu sat down for a moment to catch her breath, only to end up passing out for a few minutes. While sleeping, she dreamed the most vivid dream she could ever remember having. The weird part? It was just a dream of being at the party she was already at, with completely ordinary events unfolding. She awoke with a start, suddenly feeling full of energy, all of the lethargy of before completely gone. Dismissing it as a strange dream, she headed off to get another drink, before rejoining the party.

But that was when things got weird. A child suddenly stars crying at the edge of her hearing. Someone spills a drink two tables over. When the rain starts, she's already heading indoors - everything is happening exactly as she dreamed it.

"The girl over there gets hit by a rock and can't move... The tall guy's fingers catch on fire for no reason... the Palai over in the corner get in an argument and start yelling..."

As she mumbles, staring with growing distress at the crowd, everything she says comes true seconds after she says it. Is this it? Has she developed the power to see into the future?

Why couldn't this happen at a time when something actually important was going to happen?

[[OOC - So! Normally Kosuzu's ability won't be nearly this convenient, but I figured that for a random party post with a powers-going-haywire effect, I'd have her prophetic dream ability turbocharge into full-on precognition. Within this toplevel, Kosuzu has advance knowledge of everything that will happen at the party for ten minutes. The only exception is if her knowledge of the future alters events directly.

If you want to plot something out with that gimmick in mind, hit me up over at [plurk.com profile] ProfessorProf! Or, if this idea has some kind of major problem, I can toss it out and come up with a new toplevel.]]
